Weather in August
August, the last month of the summer in Energy, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 71.8°F (22.1°C) and 91.4°F (33°C).Temperature
The average high-temperature is a still tropical 91.4°F (33°C) in August, hardly different from the 91.9°F (33.3°C) recorded in July. The low-temperature average for Energy during August stands at an agreeable 71.8°F (22.1°C).Heat index
The heat index value for August is computed to be a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
